Sure enough, Zhou Zhengyan was hit.

Xia Huan's case has not yet been sorted out, and the next day, another female disciple was killed, and the situation was exactly the same as Xia Huan's. It's just that this time it's not Jin Beifeng's, but Wang Peng's Houdefeng's disciple.

On the third day, another one was replaced by Elder Zhang's disciple.

The murder of three female disciples in three days caused a great shock in the sect, and many female disciples were panicked, and no one dared to travel alone, no matter where they went, they only dared to act in the company of three or four people.

This incident also made Miaose very angry, and ordered Wang Peng and Zhou Zheng to thoroughly investigate the matter before she went into retreat.

In fact, by the time the third female disciple arrived, Zhou Zheng already had a plan in his heart. The same practice of the exercises, the same loss of Yin Yuan and spiritual power cultivation, and the place where the victim is killed is the same private space. With the combination of these things, he has basically judged the murderer's intentions.

According to this line of thought, Zhou Zheng quickly locked up several suspects. One is a disciple of Wang Peng, Pan Hong, known as the first beautiful man in Wuxiantai. Countless female disciples admired and were obsessed with him, and they were willing to sacrifice themselves for him. Xia Huan is one of those admirers.

The second is a disciple of Elder Zheng Yuan, named Gao Jin, who is a strong, tall and powerful person, and he is not innocent with the third female disciple who died, and he has also been punished and confined for this.

The third is Cao Xiu, who was recruited into the torture hall by Zhou Zheng. As the personal disciple of the head of the sect, this kid has not seduces and teases these female disciples, and the three deceased have all been harassed by him, and one of them was forcibly passed by him. It's no secret that other disciples have bumped into this.

These three suspects have a common characteristic, that is, their cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds in the past few days.

Pan Hong and Gao Jin entered the cultivation of the middle level of the Heavenly Rank from the beginning of the Heavenly Order, and Cao Xiu, who had the worst cultivation, also advanced to the peak of the Earth Rank yesterday.

Zhou Zheng immediately sent Liu Zi and Guan Ju to monitor Pan Hong and Gao Jin at all times, and asked Nie Shan to find a way to keep Cao Xiu from leaving his sight for various reasons. Under Miaose's personal guidance and the supply of a large number of resources, Nie Shan had already raised his skills to the first level of the Heavenly Order, which was more than enough to deal with Cao Xiu.

Yiyi was sent by Zhou Zheng to find out the situation of the three friends of the suspected object, and collect their movements and contacts in the past few days.

Zhou Zheng has already seen the dawn of victory, and he feels that in a day at most, the murderer will reveal his original form.

However, the discovery of a fourth corpse that night completely negated his inference.

This is a female disciple under Liu Xu's sect, and she is also Liu Xu's assistant, responsible for her diet and some account matters.

The female disciple died naked in her own room, and there were traces of sexual intercourse before her death, and the death was similar to that of the previous three people.

However, what made this female disciple different from the other deceased was that she had not practiced that kind of evil skill, and although the Yin Yuan and spiritual power had also been absorbed, there was a lot of damage in her body.

If it is said that the first three deceased were mistaken by the exercises and took the initiative to sacrifice the Yin Yuan, then this disciple was violently seized.

What Zhou Zheng couldn't accept the most was that the three suspects he suspected did not have time to commit crimes, which several people under his surveillance could testify.

Could it be that you are thinking wrong? The murderer is not a female disciple who deliberately chooses to practice evil skills, but has his own unique exercises that can collect yin and supplement yang? If that's the case, it's even more difficult to prevent! Zhou Zheng just asked Liu Zi to assign Jin Beifeng's disciples to secretly observe those disciples who practiced evil skills. However, now, all female disciples may be targeted!

There is one thing that Zhou Zheng can't figure out, if he practices such an evil skill, he will definitely reveal a strong evil aura on his body, how can he not be discovered in the sect?

Could it be that the murderer is someone else? If so, this man is very hidden!

For two days in a row, the wind and waves were calm, and no female disciples were killed.

This made everyone in the torture hall secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Zhou Zheng's brows were even more difficult to stretch.

No new cases means no new leads!

The next day, it was still peaceful. This made everyone who had been highly nervous for five or six days feel relaxed. Although the murderer was not caught, as long as he did not continue to commit crimes, people's hearts would slowly settle down.

However, eight days after the first case, two more cases of the same rape and murder suddenly appeared.

A female disciple is a person who practices that kind of exercises, and belongs to Zheng Yuan's disciples. However, the disciple of Jin Beifeng, who was monitoring, had diarrhea that night, and lost his target for a while. By the time it was rediscovered, the female disciple had already died in a nearby cave.

The other female disciple was a disciple of Elder Bai Yue and was not under surveillance. However, when Zhou Zheng went to the scene to check the body, he unexpectedly found that this was also a disciple who practiced that kind of exercise.

Zhou Zheng was suspicious!

Let's not talk about who the murderer is, these female disciples who cultivate evil skills alone have spread all over the major peaks of Wuxiantai. Liu Hu, who was only relying on his status as an elder, could not have the ability to lure so many female disciples to practice his evil skills.

And the murderer's target is very strong, it is these female disciples who practice evil skills! From this point of view, these cases do not look like simple rape and murder, but more like a big conspiracy against Maisendai behind them.

Zhou Zheng asked Yiyi to invite the disciples of Shennong Pavilion to carefully examine these corpses again to see if they could find some clues.

And he himself hurried to Tianyin Pavilion. There are some things that he has to ask the head of Miaose clearly.

"How's it going? Did the killer catch it? ”

Myose was anxious, she was about to go into retreat, and she had to take care of these things before retreating. Otherwise, she would be in a difficult mood, and the effect of the retreat on the immortal level would be greatly reduced.

"I guess this time someone is deliberately targeting you for your retreat. It should be that I don't want to see you promoted to the immortal rank. ”

Zhou Zheng threw out his guess as soon as he opened his mouth, making Miaose change color instantly.

"Master, please tell me the truth! What kind of exercises are those female disciples practicing? Where does this exercise come from? What does it really do? How many people are cultivating in Maisendai? ”

Miaose was shocked, she didn't expect that Zhou Zheng could dig so deep in a few days.

She hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly, "This matter has to start from five years ago. This exercise is called Spring Silkworm Gong, which was taught to me by the Daoxu. After he ruined me, he taught me this exercise, wanting me to be willing to be his furnace and help him go one level above the immortal level.

This exercise is stronger than the Hehuan Gong practiced by husband and wife. As long as you have sex with a man, you can quickly improve your cultivation, and the higher a man's cultivation, the faster your self-improvement will be. And the higher his own cultivation, the more helpful he will be to improve the man. Both sides complement each other!

At that time, I was also greedy for this and wanted to improve myself as soon as possible, so I was willing to practice Spring Silkworm Gong.

I've been planning to deal with Dao Ruins for a long time, so I found the Wuhuan of Wangtian Pavilion. He also hated the domineering of Daoxu very much, and we hit it off. Later, by accident, I discovered that Wuhuan was also practicing Spring Silkworm Gong, but there were some places where there was a big difference. He told me that this was what the previous head of the Wangtian Pavilion had obtained from him after killing a Demon Venerable. This skill is divided into two parts, the upper part is how to cultivate the furnace ding, and the lower part is how to collect yin and supplement yang and improve cultivation. Later, I somehow let Daoxu know about this matter, and sent someone to ask for it. The previous head only had time to rub the lower part, so he had to dedicate the spring silkworm gong to the Daoxu.

It was only at this time that I discovered that once the upper part of my cultivation was raised to the peak of the Heavenly Rank, it would naturally form a furnace ding. Moreover, once you dedicate your yin yuan and spiritual power, you will definitely die.

Can you think of my hatred at that time? Daoxu, he must die!

Hehe, I made it! This trip to Wolf Plains is specially prepared for him! ”

Miaose didn't hide it at all, and told Zhou Zheng in detail about the process before and after. It is basically consistent with the information that Yingyu told him.

"Let's talk about this spring silkworm gong. I exchanged the upper and lower parts with Wu Huan, and then I improved the lower part and changed it to a method that can also be practiced by women. Not only did it help me break through the shackles of the furnace in one fell swoop, but my skills were greatly improved.

After the success, I suddenly realized that this exercise was a good opportunity to improve the overall strength of our Mai Sendai. Five years ago, I was looking for candidates among the disciples of each type of spiritual root, and in the past few years, seventy of the most qualified people have been selected from among all the spiritual roots, a total of four hundred and ninety, to practice this kind of exercise. This group of them will be able to ascend to the top of the Heaven Rank or even the peak cultivation in three or four years at most. If there are suitable candidates for male disciples, such as you, these furnace tripods are enough to help you reach the height of the third layer of the immortal rank, and even give birth to two or three more masters of the first layer of the immortal rank.

At that time, Maisendai will be the number one faction in the world! All those who have insulted us like ruins will surrender to our feet! ”

Zhou Zheng was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He didn't expect that in order to make the sect rise, Miaose would be so crazy!

He asked weakly, "What if there are no suitable male disciples?" ”

Miao Se was stunned for a moment, "If I don't find a suitable candidate, I will teach them the improved lower exercises, so that they can do their best to impact the immortal level, at least they can reach the realm of the peak of the heavenly rank." Hey, just like that, we're still not strong.

However, God favored you and sent you to Maisendai! This is my great luck! The great fortune of the sect! ”

Zhou Zhenghan came down, thinking about the female disciples who were lucky to line up in a long line like a stallion all day long, that kind of scene, shuddering!

Zhou Zheng hurriedly gathered his mind and put his mind back on the case.

"Who knows about this? Do those female disciples know? ”

"This plan, except for me and Wang Peng, no one knows about it."

"What about Liu Hu?"

"Liu Hu? I just deliberately let him discover the upper part of the Spring Silkworm Gong. He is also a womanizer, and he will definitely lure more disciples to practice this skill. ”

"Then what about Wangtian Pavilion, will you see something different?"

Miaose smiled and shook her head, "The upper part I gave Wuhuan has been deleted, and they can't see anything." In addition, if it weren't for the woman's willingness to dedicate herself and forcibly grab the Yin Yuan and spiritual power, it would not have been able to achieve the effect of improving cultivation at all. ”

"Wuhuan doesn't know this?"

"He doesn't know! Besides, we've done a great job of secrecy! ”

"What about the ruins? Don't you know about this matter? ”

Perhaps, he knew. But he's dead! Wait, what do you mean, in addition to the Dao Ruins in Jiuhua Mountain, there are other people who practice Spring Silkworm Gong, or, have you seen Spring Silkworm Gong? And they saw through our plan, this time, they are in the middle? ”

"I do. If the murderer is just to improve his cultivation, he can seduce these female disciples in private, although it takes a little longer and slower, but it is safe.

Nowadays, killing people with such fanfare, although it can quickly improve skills, it will definitely attract our great attention and put the murderer himself in danger. It would be extremely unwise to do so. Unless, on purpose! ”

Miaose looked pensive, and she agreed with Zhou Zheng's analysis.

"What is their purpose?"

"I think there could be two. The first one is to delay the time of your retreat, so that you can't reach the immortal level for a short time. The second is to deliberately sabotage your plan and make those female disciples who have been chosen by you feel uneasy and dare not continue to practice this kind of exercise. ”

A cold light flashed in Miaose's eyes, "This murderer must be caught as soon as possible!" ”

"I understand. Master, can you give me a copy of the list of those female disciples? ”

Miaose did not hesitate, immediately turned to the bookshelf, took out a list from a secret compartment and handed it to Zhou Zheng.

"Liu Xu?" Zhou Zheng exclaimed. He expanded the list, but he didn't expect the first name to be Liu Xu.

"Yes. The first batch of seventy people was chosen by me. Liu Xu is what I value the most, and I live up to my expectations the most! ”

"Sir, I have a question. Could it be that all the disciples who are cultivating don't know that they will eventually become furnace dings? ”

Miaose's expression couldn't help but dim, "Cultivators, they don't know in the early stage, only after reaching the upper echelons of the Heavenly Rank, can they fully understand the pain of being a furnace ding." Do you know that pain? I've experienced it. It hurts!

However, for the sake of the rise of the sect, what is this sacrifice? If necessary, I am willing to re-do the furnace tripod, and be the first to dedicate all my cultivation! ”

Zhou Zheng is convinced of this! At the same time, I was shocked!

"I have one last question. What if these female disciples knew about their status as a furnace, but they were unwilling to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the sect? Isn't your plan impossible to implement? ”

Miaose's face became serious, "The first two batches of disciples were personally selected by me, and I had already told them before they cultivated. The hundreds of them were all willing to sacrifice for the sect. The loyalty of these people in the latter batches is worrying, and they only practice this exercise for the sake of gaining it for nothing and quickly improving their cultivation. They certainly don't give their lives. However, I have a solution. As she spoke, Miaose took out another jade bottle from the dark compartment.

"This is the Silver Snake Grass, and the Ascending Immortal Powder made from it can trigger the exercises in their bodies, and in the end, it will also achieve the effect of selflessly giving everything."

"Who knows about this medicine?"

"The Supreme Elder of Shennong Pavilion, as well as his apprentice Elder Zhang Hao, know that the Ascension Immortal Scatter was made by their master and apprentice. Do you suspect that those female disciples were sent down to the Immortal Ascending Scatter? ”

Zhou Zheng nodded solemnly, "These deceased people are all disciples who only started to practice Spring Silkworm Gong later. As you said, they won't be willing to die. Therefore, this murderer is either a charming man who made these deceased people fascinated and willing to sacrifice everything, or he can only be drugged.

If it were one or two, the former hypothesis would still be possible, but now there are six dead, and it can only be drugged! ”

"Okay, I'll ask Zhang Hagi to help you examine the body again."

"Thank you, sir! Rest assured, I'll catch that person as soon as possible! Don't let their treacherous schemes succeed! ”

Coming out of the Tianyin Palace, Zhou Zheng's brows stretched slightly. He finally knew Miaose's plan. The murderer's purpose was also clear to him.

The next question is, he doesn't know if he should let this event go ahead.

In fact, he already had a guess in his heart about who the murderer was. It's just that he hasn't figured out who the forces behind the murderer really are? He really wanted to follow the vine and see which faction the ghost was? However, he was afraid of startling the snakes, so he stopped their sabotage plan!

Don't let the strength of Miaose improve, and don't let the power of Maisendai become stronger. In this regard, he and the murderer, and the forces behind the murderer, have the same goal. He doesn't need to push the waves, he just needs to push the boat with the current.
